Memorial Day was this past Monday and it marks the unofficial start of summer. In past years I’ve taken the summer months off and resumed the podcast in September. However it came at a cost. People got out of the habit of listening or watching and it took a while to get my small (but important) audience back. So I’ve decided to continue producing through the summer, although I might miss a week or two. Many of you will be traveling this summer so I hope you will use that time to listen to additional episodes and perhaps introduce your friends to the podcast.

In case you missed it…

The extraordinary pianist Karine Poghosyan talked about her upcoming 10th appearance at Carnegie Hall, performing, touring, recording, and lots more.
